Residence Life

Candy and Conversations

RLS tabling event for residents to share concerns and converse with the RLS and RAs. Resident will receive candy for participating in the event.

Location: Summit Hall
Time: 1pm-2pm

Halloween Goodie Bags

I would like to make some individual goodie bags to give to my residents right before Halloween. It will contain some peanut free candy (I have some peanut sensitive residents), as well as some condoms, as well as a packet of hot chocolate mix. I know that with a major holiday, residents will be out and about and I think it is very important that they have access to condoms in case they want to be sexually active over the weekend to keep them safe. I also want them to have candy for Halloween. 

Location: Boreman South
Open To: F entry residents
Time: 7pm-11pm


Thursday 10/28/21

Lincoln Hall

Costume contest through Lincoln Hall! Residents can submit pictures of their Halloween costumes and the RA's will judge for different categories. The winners will share a goodie bag(maybe gift card), prizes. The categories are: Best solo costume, best group (2 or more), and RLS' favorite. As long as a Lincoln Hall resident is participating, a group with outside folks may enter!

ON HALLOWEEN there will be a live costume show!!! A red carpet type style show!  Most likely the library! Everyone in attendance has to wear a costume! This will be a chance for residents in costume can take pictures and submit their photos.

Conclusion: There will be BOTH a contest, that requires a photo submission through Instagram, and a live show on October 31st, later in the afternoon, but not too late.


Location: Most likely the library
Open To: Everyone who wants to join (mainly lincoln hall people)
